HANOI ROCKS To Play Free Gig Outside Helsinki Department Store

April 12, 2005

Finnish rockers HANOI ROCKS will celebrate the release of their new album, "Another Hostile Takeover", with a free showcase outside the Stockmann department store in Helsinki, Finland on Friday, April 15 beginning at 5:00 p.m. The stage is set above the entrance, under the legendary Stockmann clock (propably the most famous meeting place in Helsinki). The band will perform a 20-minute set of songs from the new album, to be followed by an autograph-signing session in Stockmann's music department (in the basement).

"Another Hostile Takeover" was released in Finland on March 30 via Major Leidén Productions. A U.S. release date for the album has yet to be announced.

"Another Hostile Takeover" is the group's first album to feature guitarist Conny Bloom (SILVERGINGER 5, ex-ELECTRIC BOYS),who joined the band last year.
